Police, agencies confer on drug abuse
By DARYL COOK Staff Writer
The tip of the iceberg is all that is known to the drug problem in America, according to a new study of authorities.
And they say that some confusion exists on how police should handle the tip.
In an attempt to clear the confusion about how to best treat drug abusers, local police met Wednesday and yesterday with representatives of local drug counseling groups.
The groups assembled for the first time, under the direction of the Douglas County Drug Abuse Council. Randy Schwering and his team discussed that the group's meeting was successful.
"Five people called the meeting revolutionary because it was the first time the groups have ever been brought together," Schwering said.

Blood drive next week
KU students can invest next week in a different kind of bank—the Red Cross Blood Bank.
Marihiet Olson, Salina senior and KU blood drive coordinator, said yesterday that she expected 750 pins to be taken during the conference. (The Association and the Interfraternity Council.)
The blood drive will be Sept. 27-29 in the Kansas Union ballroom.
Registration ended Thursday, but anyone still interested in participating may do so by going to the Union on one of the scheduled days.
KU's 750-pint goal is 250 more than the amount collected last year.
"I think the thing that bothers people more than the thought is the people of giving blood, and that something is passion out of body. But it isn't pain at all," Olson said.
Before a person can donate blood, the Red Cross asks for identification and medical history. The donor also must have his pulse, temperature and blood pressure taken to make sure he is healthy. The drawing of blood takes about 10 minutes.
People ineligible to give blood are those who are taking antibiotics, who are pregnant, who are under 185 pounds, who are HIV positive, or have seen sick within the last two weeks.
Donated blood will be given to the Regional Blood Center in Wichita, Olson Briggs
University of Kansas Psychiatric Clinic and Lawrence Memorial Hospital—met with members of the Law enforcement Police Department, KU Trevor School and Douglas County Sheriff's Department.
The group met four times during the two-day seminar to listen to lectures from authorities on drug abuse and to exchange ideas on drug abuse treatment.
Schwering said that despite recent research on drug abuse, it was impossible to estimate how large the drug abuse problem was in Lawrence.
Allen Johnson, a volunteer worker for Headquarters, said that there were too many variables in Lawrence, such as the number of students using drugs and the types of drugs available, to determine the magnitude of the drug problem.
In overdose cases involving barbituates, almost 50 per cent of the victims died because of slow or ineffective emergency procedures, Michaels said. Michaels has worked in Dallas drug rehabilitation centers.
Elias Michaelis, assistant professor of human development and family life, told police in his lecture that there was a need for greater treatment of drug abuse emergencies.
Records of the actual number of drug cases handled by Lawrence police weren't
A Lawrence policeman who asked not to be identified said that police sometimes had trouble obtaining treatment for drug-abuse victims. Often police don't know which drug-counseling centers are open, he said, and some centers at times refuse to take victims.
Johnson said that the drug counseling centers were capable of handling drug problems, but that more communication was needed between them and police.
Several suggestions were presented in the seminar that might enable drug-counseling groups to better understand drug problems that police encounter, Johnson said.
One policeman suggested a "ride-alone" program, Johnson said, which enabled drug counselors to ride with policemen to learn firsthand how police handle drug problems.
Schering said that a drug abuse referral pamphlet, listing the drug counseling agencies and the hours they're open, could be distributed to policemen.
Schwering said that the Douglas County Drug Abuse Council had tentatively scheduled more seminars, to begin next spring.
To what extent police and drug counseling groups will open communications will depend upon the success of future seminars, he said.

"WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?"
Psalms 2 and Acts 4:25
Are not our Democratic institutions now fast falling in favor of institutions of socialism and communism? According to Georgia's late great Senator Watson the first step in such a downfall is "forgetting". The next step is "trying" to forget, "forgetting, indifference, and utter recklessness! We hope the following will help us remember and not forget Oliver Cromwell, nor be in trouble. We must try to make sure that we also especially its Christian Testimony to his nation and fellowman!"
THE EYES OF GOD RUN TO AND PRO THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH TO SHOW HISMITE STRONG IN THE BEHALF OF
NATURE.
"GOD IS A MAN OF WARI" Exodus 15:3.
Quoting several verses from the latter part of the 22nd chapter of Zekiel, or extracts from verses: "There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof — Her prophets have violated My Law, and have profaned Mine holy hearts; they have put no difference between the holy and profae, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from My sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the earth, and they will be when the Lord hath not spoken. The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery —" AND I SOUGHT FOR A MAN AMONG THEM TO MAKE UP THE HEDGE, AND STAND IN THE GAP BEFORE ME FOR THE LAND, THAT I SHOULD NOT DESTROY IT; BUT I FOUND NONE, THEREFORE I HAVE PURED OUT MINE INDIGNATION ON THEM; I HAVE CONSUMED THEM WITH THE FIRE OF MY WRATH, THEIR OWN WAY HAVE I RECOMPENDED UPON THE HEADS, SYSH THOU LORD God." And the same reason some of fire of God's wrath in fulfillment of this judgement. So did the Prophet Jeremiah Read Lamentations You can and you in September 1978 if in Faith we read The Book of Lamentations. Read and see and think about the things that would not have happened: "I God had found to make up the hedge and in the gap."

During the first years of the great Civil Wars that raged in England in the 1640s, the king's brother, Prince Ruprecht's horsemen and Cavaliers swept the calvary of Parliament off the fields of battle. However, the sturdy Puritan infantry and foot soldiers of Parliament victorious at the Battle of Bosworth had been known by the name of Oliver Cromwell. He had a cousin among the nobility by whose influence he might have obtained military preference. However, he asked no special favors for himself but appeared to be content with the office of captain in the calvary. When Prince Ruprecht's Cavaliers fought against the English army, his men together and from being routed and scattered, Cromwell analyzed the success of Prince Ruprecht's Cavaliers, and said to his cousin. Hampden: "Your troops are most of them decayed serving fellows and tapsters, and such kind of fellow, and their troops are genius, and their strength will never be in danger. Our base and mean fellows will ever be able to encounter gentlemen that have honor, courage, and resolution in them?" Cromwell then went to work to raise a regiment of very different mite. As he himself expressed it, he proposed to match "men of religion" against the "king's gentlemen of honor." The result was the organization of the famous religious union, and the religious enigma, tempered and hardened by severeest discipline.
Cromwell's lioness were men that had the true "lear of God" in their hearts; and gradually lost all other fear. "True they were never aware of what was happening to them, or the face of the earth. The Prince then took a job of Admiral in the King's navy, but it was only a question of time until Cromwell's lioness Navy swept Prince Rupert and his ships off the ocean, or to its bottom — have forgiven us that the great Prince in the end, but the war was the wandering about
